UPDATE: I was unable to take my kids to see this concert because one of my kids was sick. We were all really disappointed.
I’m taking my kids to see the School of Rock concert this Thursday in Vienna, VA. The School of Rock is celebrating the 25th Anniversary of Live Aid with a 49 city tour across the US. They are the best students enrolled in the 58 School of Rock US locations. The Northern Virginia show will feature students from the Ashburn, Silver Spring and Vienna School of Rock locations.
The show will include songs from US, The Who, Queen, Led Zeppelin, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger, Tina Turner and more. $10 from each ticket will benefit the Music for Relief, a non-profit organization established by rock band Linkin Park with the funds going to the help the recovery efforts in Haiti.
I’m really excited about sharing this concert with my kids. We have taken them to see Miley Cyrus, Jonas Brothers, Dora, Blues Clues, The Wiggles and a few more. But this is going to be real rock and roll and played by their peers. I think it is important to expose kids to all sorts of music and entertainment from ballet to rock and roll.
If you’d like to join us, here is the information about the Vienna, VA show:

I will give you a full review after the concert on Thursday.
disclosure: As a School of Rock Mom-Bassador, I will be receiving 5 tickets for my family to attend the concert in Vienna, VA plus 1 free class at School of Rock. All opinions are my own.
